About
Hostal Oliva is a small, unfussy art nouveau hostel on Passeig de Gràcia near major transport links and Barcelona's commercial centre. Rooms vary widely in condition and size; some have city views and controllable heating. The wooden lift is a period feature. Reviewers mention clean rooms and friendly staff in positive experiences, while others report uncleanliness, noise from reception and water pipes, and poor handling of complaints. Air conditioning is not reliably available. You must leave your key with staff and ring the bell to enter after leaving.
The hostel offers free Wi-Fi and small desks in some rooms. Beyond this, little is documented about conditions for work: no common areas are mentioned, and it's unclear how welcoming the space is for extended stays or laptop use.
